1. Use density to explain why a can of diet soda floats but regular soda sinks. link
2. Why do boats float even though they are made of materials denser than water? link
3. Who is Archimedes and what was Arechimedes Principle? link
4. Why do divers need to wear weighted belts? link
5. What is buoyant force? link 1link 2
Density Demonstration - Do you remember why the oil stayed in the middle?
Temperature is the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object or liquid. Do you remember why the food color in this demonstration acted differently in each beaker?
Turn the knob until the pointer is at 0.
If your measuring a small object that might roll you put in a beaker.
Move the heaviest rider first.
Dont forget to find the mass of the beaker then subtract it at the end.
--> Law of conservation of mass
- mass is niether created or destroyed in ordinary chemical or physical changes Using the Triple Beam Balance - Period 1 Movie
